D.E.I.

JD Vance is DEI in reverse and I dont mean to take away his accomplishments. We may not have the same political views but I can respect that he is a very intelligent person who has accomplished a lot. That said, if he went to Upper St. Clair or Lebo, he has no shot to get into Yale. Those Ivy's reserve spots for poor and rural whites like Vance. You probably wouldn't think of it as DEI but it is. I am sure that he wrote about his upbringing and drew upon that in his admissions interview and the Yale board thought this is a bright kid who brings a different perspective to campus. He brings diversity. So, yes, he is a shining example of DEI and I mean that in a good way. There should be spots at Yale for kids like that.
Clearly, you have no idea. You really need to read Hillbilly Elegy. Don't even think of watching the movie, though.

Vance spent 4 years in the Marines before going to Ohio State where he graduated summa cum laude in 3 years. He earned his way into Yale.
 
I didn't say he wasn't smart. There are smart people everywhere who lack opportunities.
Vance wrote a book about it.
He is smart.
He is also DEI. He didn't come from an elite private school and have rich parents like most of those at Yale. He received a scholarship for someone different from the usual Yale entrant and that gave him opportunity.
Did you read his book?
 
I can't disagree with you totally. Kamala isn't a moron, but she graduated and went straight into government. She never had to sharpen her skills in private practice. A good memory can carry a lawyer pretty far.

We all heard her infamous word salads. I guess that works in Berkeley or Fisherman's Wharf, but most anyone of pedestrian intelligence realized she had nothing to offer. Was it just a bad campaign strategy or is she as simple minded as she sounded.

I saw her interrogate witnesses during he Senate career. She came off to me as sharp and focused. I often thought her line of questioning was full of crap, but she didn't sound clueless like AOC does at times.

She married Emhoff in 2014 and then rose professionally. I wonder why? She's basically just another system politician like Lindsay Graham and Tim Scott. Bright, but of little real use.
Don't forget the influence of ... Willie Brown.

Nobody who goes to OSU earns their way into Yale. He's DEI. It's ok. He is an example of it working.

You regularly make asinine statements whether it's sports or politics. This is just another in a long line. You must be sidelining as a Yale admissions personnel. What an idiot!

Buddy, a normal Ohio State white guy with good grades and a good LSAT score doesn't get into Yale Law. Do you realize how competitive it is. His military experience plus his childhood sob story got him in. Call him DEIJD.
 
JD Vance went to Harvard. Kamala went essentially to a community college.
She didn’t go to a community college. Howard is one of the most prestigious universities in the country. But it doesn’t surprise me that this level of ignorance is par for the course.
 
JD Vance is clearly very intelligent. I think that’s why he’s a very dangerous political figure, but that’s almost a compliment. He’s very smart. I also think that many law schools - from Yale to the lowest ranked school - value students who served in the military, and tend to look favorably on their applications. Not just for the skills and strengths that military service provides, but also because (1) the GI bill provides a guaranteed rate of return for the school, and (2) military veterans get preferential hiring treatment for most public sector jobs, and schools like Yale are very interested in touting the number of graduates who are placed in the high prestige federal jobs like the DOJ Honors Program, Presidential Management Fellowships, US Attorneys Offices in the high prestige districts like SDNY, and things like that. You still need extremely strong baseline credentials to get into Yale, but it’s also true that military service gives you a huge advantage in a pool that’s neck deep with incredibly qualified applicants. And he’s clearly been able to craft a very compelling background story so I’m sure his personal statement and admissions interview jumped off the page.

Kamala Harris is also very intelligent. To be frank, most children of who have parents that are a Berkeley professor and a PhD biologist are probably pretty smart. I don’t think she’s a good campaigner (though I honestly thought she did fine under difficult circumstances) and I think she’s a whole lot better in settings like senatorial hearings where she can draw from her prosecutorial experience rather than speeches and other kinds of public speaking where Vance is better.

Here's what hypocrite who is pretending to be a Christian sounds like.
Interesting. I thought you were atheist Joey. What denomination are you, if you don't mind me asking. 😉
 
Kamala attended a lower half ranked law school, lower than Pitt at the time but rankings suggest Pitt top 100 yet below #50

Howard University undergrad is well known but a long way from academically prestigious and very easy to get into and graduate from

my guess is she's not academically as smart as Trump but close and neither are top tier in any standard tests they've taken
 
you left leaners are now a minority, get the hell over it, go on you tube and watch “lefty’s losing it” good funny stuff about the dems losing their minds over Trump winning the election
 
By the way, the right had to put up with Joe Biden, for 4 years, the worst president in history, he and his son hunter would have sold out this country if he could have. Carter was the worst until Biden came along

do you think that would have any effect or provide insight more than them reading postings of that here?

Raised Catholic, went to a Catholic school. Most recently attend a local Methodist church because they are actual followers of the teachings of Christ and not hypocrites like the faux-Christian from the NC backwoods.

Apparently, your Methodist sect is one of those offshoots that aren't Bible-based.

Catholicism is a non-Bible based version of Christianity as well. I say that as one raised as a Catholic.

Honestly, the catholic church has way to many people like yourself.

Okay. I wondered because you posted, "The ones (jan 6ers) who were lucky enough to be charged and sentenced, needed to rot in a prison for the rest of their miserable lives."

A grandma who did not participate in any violence or destruction of property was charged and sentenced for a misdemeanor. You want a life sentence? Sounds way more malicious than calling a politician stupid, no?

Maybe you need to ask yourself, What Would Joey Do?

That doesn't really answer his question. "Attendance" is hardly a conviction.

Are you claiming to be a Christion, i.e., one who truly believes that Jesus Christ is his Lord and Savior?
 
The answer is what you quoted. Point to the which "grandma" you are talking about in this video.

Those are pictures of people acting violently. Obviously the grandma I cited wasn't involved. WWJD. He certainly wouldn't want her treated like you want her treated.

🎵🎶 Joey loves us this I know, for Kamala tells us so. 🎶. 😇
 
Vance and Kamala, 2 lawyers, are both very intelligent. You cannot get through law school without being highly intelligent. Same goes for Biden though he was in clear mental decline due to aging.

The idea that you can be one of those kids who gets an 800 or 900 on SAT's but do well in college, get into law school, graduate law school, and become a successful attorney is ridiculous. These are all very intelligent people whether you agree with their political views or not.
Sure, they are both intelligent. However, a lot of intelligent people can't convey a message clearly, or think on their feet during a hostile interview. Vance can. Kamala and DJT can't.
 
few should've been pardoned by Trump
all of them should've been met with far greater force

probably few should've been pardoned of the 9K by Biden

critical things need to change with how politics and government is done and neither peaceful protest nor violence like Mangione will work with all the money controlling the power

there's parts of the Constitution that had to be altered but parts that should not be touched
